The 17th of January 10 of our pupils headed of to Edinburgh’s Jack Kane Centre to participate in the Active Schools Boccia Festival. We joined 12 others schools from Lothian Region to experience this Paralympic sport.
Boccia is a precision target game that requires individuals or teams to score points by throwing their coloured balls onto the court and position them closer to the Jack ball than their opponents. We got the chance to participate in 8 skills stations, all tailored to teach us new skills and techniques. Everyone had a fantastic day!
